Ni No Kuni’s Release in Europe has Been Delayed

Ni No Kuni was originally supposed to be released on the 25th of January in Europe but it has been announced that this has been pushed back to the 1st of Febuary. Not the largest delay but still annoying for eager fans (like me).

“Sadly this is an issue we no longer have control over, Our apologies.”

“It was a difficult decision to take as our options were limited, we are sorry for the delay.”

Namco Bandai (On Twitter) have blamed certain logistics for this delay and to compensate the players are offering a a download of a familiar, a Draggle, on the games launch for free!

While it does suck the game is delayed I really like the free familiar and I personally think Nacmo Bandai handled this very well. You can check out Namco Bandai UK’s twitter HERE.
